Regularly scheduled cleanings with our highly trained hygienists allow us to keep your family happy and healthy. We encourage parents to bring in their children as early as age one for a Well Baby Dental Visit. Our doctors will take the time necessary to help you understand your treatment options—we allow plenty of time for our appointments, so nothing is ever rushed. Explore our variety of dental services today.
Well Baby Dental Visit
At Green River Dentistry, we stand by the ADA recommendation that parents should take their children to the dentist no later than their first birthday. During the Well Baby Dental Visit, your hygienist will provide specific oral hygiene instructions to assist in your child’s at-home dental care and answer any questions or concerns you may have about your child’s oral health. Your child will also meet with the doctor for an examination
Dental Prophylaxis (Dental Cleaning)
A prophylaxis is commonly known as a “dental cleaning.” At your periodic cleaning appointment, you will be with a licensed, highly-skilled, and experienced dental hygienist. This appointment also includes a decay risk assessment, gum and periodontal treatment, oral hygiene instructions, and a comprehensive exam with the doctor.
Digital X-Rays
Digital x-rays offer faster results, more diagnostic accuracy, and a lower dose of radiation to the patient.
Patient Consultations
At Green River Dentistry, we believe that providing thorough information about procedures and treatment options enables our patients to make educated decisions about their dental care. We schedule time to sit down with the doctor to discuss your treatment plan and address any questions or concerns you may have, so you can be confident in the decisions you make about your oral health.
Custom Athletic Mouth Guards
Mouth guards are proven to be an excellent way to protect your teeth while playing sports. Our athletic mouth guards are customized for a comfortable fit while providing superior protection.
TMJ Therapy
Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) is very common and can cause extreme discomfort. TMD is often characterized by grinding teeth, jaw pain, and severe headaches. At Green River Dentistry, we can create a custom bite splint to help manage your pain and discomfort caused by TMD.
Oral Appliance for Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea can lead to a number of discomforts, including teeth grinding, snoring, difficulty breathing, and more. We offer oral appliance therapy to help alleviate these issues related to sleep apnea.
This device is similar to a sporting mouth guard but is only worn during sleep. The oral appliance positions the jaw to create an open, unobstructed airway while you are sleeping. We find that many of our patients prefer this treatment method over the bulky and expensive CPAP mask that some dental and medical professionals prescribe. Appointments for sleep appliances are scheduled with Dr. Hipp at our Haubstadt location.
